The sight of fuel prices starting with a 1 will be a welcome sight to a lot of Dubliners today as more and more petrol stations drop their prices below the €2 mark for the first time in weeks.
Fuel prices rose sharply in the spring and early summer - a knock-on effect of the conflict in Ukraine causing uncertainty over gas supplies, as well as the wider cost of living crisis. Protestors took to the streets of Dublin as prices skyrocketed to nearly €2.20 per litre.
Petrol stations in Dublin are now averaging out somewhere around the 202.9c mark for diesel, and the 203.9c mark for petrol, according to Pumps.ie. The most expensive prices listed for both are 215.7c for diesel, and 219.7c for petrol.
